520    Do Not Go Gently celebrates the lives, work and wisdom of 
       three remarkable artists who have maintained their 
       creative productivity well into their golden years. Their 
       stories illustrate the role of creativity and art in 
       contributing to a long, happy, healthy and vibrant life. 
       Narrated by famed newsman (and nonagenarian) Walter 
       Cronkite, Do Not Go Gently follows 82-year-old quilter 
       Arlonzia Pettway, 90-year-old ballet dancer Frederic 
       Franklin and 109-year-old composer Leo Ornstein to 
       illuminate their experiences as part of America's fastest-
       growing age group - men and women 85 and older.. Do Not Go
       Gently uncovers the science of lifelong creativity through
       interviews with gerontologist Dr. Gene Cohen, whose 
       groundbreaking work provides a deeper understanding of the
       aging brain. The program also documents the importance of 
       creative outlets to older adults with Alzheimer's disease 
       and other age-related disabilities. "This documentary 
       challenges the outdated notion that people who reach a 
       certain age have nothing left to contribute. America's 
       seniors, like those highlighted in Do Not Go Gently, have 
       had decades to master skills and garner accomplishments, 
       often rendering them our best leaders and innovators. The 
       film also emphasizes how mutually beneficial it is for 
       seniors to continue exercising their creative force - both
       to the society that reaps the benefits of their creations,
       and to the elderly whose quality of life is maintained." -
